In Need of Music

Today's Photograph, by Khalid Hussain:


This photograph tells the story of an old Pakistani Musician. I named this photograph: Lost in Clouds of Red.

I thought that this poem particularly suited this photograph:
I am in need of music that would flow
Over my fretful, feeling fingertips,
Over my bitter-tainted, trembling lips,
With melody, deep, clear, and liquid-slow.
Oh, for the healing swaying, old and low,
Of some song sung to rest the tired dead,
A song to fall like water on my head,
And over quivering limbs, dream flushed to glow!
By Elizabeth Bishop
